Below is a cut and paste of comments from a great and fun Terry Talk giving at an IAAP event on Relationship Networking. This survey was done by the IAAP chapter themselves and graciously forwarded to Chadons. In asking about presenter knowledge, relevence, easy to understand and so on, the range was typically 95-100% in the Agree/Strongly Agree columns with 75% being the Strongly Agrees. Isn't that the results YOU want from your members?

| Terrific Speaker!

| Stimulating speaker, very engaging! Great, lively, engaging speaker. Good examples, I like answering questions during the presentations; shows flexibility.
|
| * I loved the seminar, it was informative and informational. I really enjoyed it as I have problems networking, but this was simple, concise info to encourage me to not be afraid to network.

| **The lecture provided me with a kick in the pants to better utilize the “FLAMBE” principles I knew in my head, but never had properly quantified or arranged cohesively. These principles apply, not just to work, but to life. It wasn’t just a presentation, but a call to action. I’m glad I came. |

from SEMINARS ----
Thanks. What a great kickoff presentation for our group on Relationship Networking. Our members really liked this subject and how you presented it. It was fun, engaging, and you brought up things that we already (should) know in a way that really hit home. Relationship Networking
What a GREAT presentation. The part of your presentation about Relationships and the "LeeTer Meter" was worth the costs of the presentation alone. Anyone who networks should see your presentation! Relationship Networking Seminar.

FEEDBACK FROM ARTICLES WRITTEN
Great article on Sales and Elephants. I read it all the way through and then sent it on, with two paragraphs of my own comments, to a network of web designers and developers I work with. It really resonates with my own experience of relationships with prospective clients in the last year that I've been doing web development for people.
More broadly, I think the theme of educating and enabling rather than selling resonates with the younger generation I'm a part of. We're very cynical about sales and marketing. We've grown up in an environment saturated with it. The last thing we want is someone spitting out sales clichés in our face.

Dear Sir or Madam,
Through recent networking opportunities I have had the pleasure to meet Terry Bass. Terry is the education coordinator to a vibrant business networking group in the city of Chicago that I have had the pleasure to frequent on several occasions.
On each of my visits I have been impressed with the detail and value of Terry’s educational teachings in the ways of networking, business leadership, and business motivation. I have seen many similar presentations but few that encompass the level of detail and strategy that Terry provides.
I find Terry to be a talented speaker, an insightful leader, and a genuinely charismatic business person. Recently I had the opportunity to get to know Terry on a phone conversation in which we discussed some business strategy and the services we each provide. I was especially impressed with Terry’s listening skills, his wisdom, and his genuine sense of interest in learning about how he could help me in my business pursuits.
As one who knows and understands coaching methodology, and who has hired several coaches in the past, I believe I recognize true coaching talent when I see it. I find Terry’s mannerisms, his choice of words, and his listening skills to be consistent to that of some of the best coaches I have ever met.
I would confidently recommend Terry for anyone seeking a knowledgeable speaker or coach for business development, leadership, and motivational purposes.
Kindest Regards,
Lonny S. Hogan

Terry, I wanted to say thank you for the workshop on Customer Loyalty that you conducted for my business and for my team. The content was great and on the mark. But it was your grasp of the content, your delivery and your overall ability to teach and keep it interesting that created the value for my team and my business. I truly appreciate what you do and am very thankful for the role you have played over the years to make my business better.
Thank you.
Matt Mitchell
And from one of the people that took the course
“I’ve had the good fortune of being a student of Terry’s Customer Loyalty training through a previous employer, and I can definitely say his course benefits me to this day in my current job. I’ve also partnered with Terry and had him speak on networking at two Chamber events, and they were both well attended and packed with practical information. I highly recommend Terry!”
-Mark Pendergrass, Executive Director, Morton Grove Chamber of Commerce and Industry
